LONG SERVICE AWARDS
Walter Sisulu University recognises colleagues who have given long and sustained service to the institution. Each profile brings together a photograph, a name, a designation, a department, a campus, the years of service and a short story.
The cards below show how a recipient will appear. They are samples, not confirmed award recipients. Human Resources replaces the photograph, name, designation, department, campus, years of service and story when the approved details arrive. Each new year is added as its own page, and earlier profiles stay in place.
A record of service, kept for the years ahead.
